(no subject)

The icon might not seem so appropriate when I first tell you the context of this story, but once you get to the end, you'll see why it's fitting.

Nick didn't get home until 8:00 pm last night (i.e. he put in a 10 1/2 hour day.) The boy was utterly miserable and it probably didn't help matters that I had eaten leftovers for dinner on account of not knowing his ETA.

I offered to go get him dinner and that helped his mood a bit.

Of course, then he threw in some complaints about mowing the lawn and spending the weekend hanging out with my delightfully dorky, yet utterly high maintenance friend/"sister", Angie (it's her birthday so we're all getting dinner and then going to see Oliver - as stated in a previous post. Sunday, we're spending the afternoon with Angie's family because it's her little brother's High School graduation party.)

I can't really change our plans for the weekend, but I did convince our 16-year old neighbor boy into mowing the lawn for $10.00. If you've ever seen my lawn, I can assure you that it has some steep-ass slopes that require significant physical strength.

Nick claims that the reason Jordan said yes was not because of the money, but because of my womanly wiles...and my boobs.

*shrugs*

I can't say I really care about Jordan's motivations here because at least I don't have mow our lawn and Nick doesn't have to suffer an asthma attack.

FTW!

Hey, as long as it's looky-no-touchy, Nick should be glad you have the boobage to be persuasive.

It's ALWAYS looky-no-touchy.

Yay for no lawn mowing. That's great. Enjoy your weekend!

I had a nice one. :)
Far too short though.

This is why you have children. So you don't have to pay them $10 and they still mow the lawn. ;)

LOL.

I had a chat with his mom about that. She said she can't even get Jordan to mow the lawn for $10, though she cited me batting my eyelashes as the reason Jordan said yes. :P

Yay for getting someone else to do the lawn!
